1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Prohibitins PHB1 and PHB2 are evolutionary conserved and pleiotropic proteins, which have been shown to be important factors in various cellular functions, including proliferation, tumour suppression, apoptosis, transcription, and mitochondrial protein folding. Recently, we demonstrated that down-regulation promoted renal interstitial fibrosis (RIF) in ureteral obstructed rats. Furthermore, the hypoxic conditions and oxidative stress have been implicated in obstruction-mediated renal disease. This study was performed to explore the association of PHBs with oxidative stress in a rat model of RIF. PHBs, the pro-fibrotic transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), and the extracellular matrix proteins collagen-IV (Col-IV) and fibronectin (FN) were evaluated, as were markers of oxidative stress [total reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA)] and antioxidative capacity (superoxide dismutase, glutathione), and apoptosis. Our results showed a progressive increase in oxidative stress and concomitant decrease in antioxidants over a period of 4 weeks ureteral obstruction. Concomitantly, profibrotic components increased and PHB expression decreased. Overall, both PHBs were negatively correlated with the extent of observed fibrosis, TGF-β1, Col-IV, FN, ROS, MDA, and apoptosis.
